The FASHION or LAcTEe.-An inter-

a lecture on tight lacing delivered by

" she had heard OF instances where la
dies were 50 determined not 10 exceed

had actually held on 20 crossbar while
their maids had IA tered the fifteen.

acquainted with these mysteries, we
can only suppose that the effect Of
holding 10 the crossbar Is { elongate
the body more than would be possible
BY merely standing upright. There
seems TO be field Tor invention here.
II il really is so important TO squeeze

warning the Pedestrians Away.

In Boston the other day burly
Hibernian was at work on roof remov-
ing ice from a gutter. His position was
dangerous one, but this did not seem to
give him 50 much uneasiness as did the
temerity of pedestrians who persisted in
passing below close to the building. The
warnings of the men who were guarding
the dangerous section Of sidewalk were
repeatedly disregarded, and the Irishman,
at length becoming thoroughly exasper-
ated at this continued display Of foolhardi-
ness. shouted from his lofty perch: ''f
dro p on the heads OF some OF We, DE-
CORA, yanll wish ye'd kept out o. that"

The Distance of the Horizon.
TChicago Tribune.

What is the distance of the horizon from
the sea shore! Owing to the curvature OF
the earth's surface the distance between
a spectator on the sea-shore and the dip OF
the horizon becomes greater according to
the height of the spectator above the level
Of the sea- The rule for measuring this
distance is as follows: To the height OF
the eye in feet add half the height, and
extract the square root of the sum, the
result being the distance in statute miles.
Hence, if the spectators eye were six
feet above the level of the sea, the dis
lance would be three miles; if his eye
were ten feet above the level Of the sea
the distance would be nearly four miles,
and so on for any height above the sea
level

why y Venerable Maiden Lady Had to

why n Venerable Maiden Lady Had to
Part With an Initiative Bird
A gentleman residing in Ceylon wished
to make present to a maiden aunt OF his
living in London, and he could think OF
nothing so suitable and likely to be
source of amusement to her as a mina-a
small bird, CORE spending in appearance
and size to an English blackbird, and rlv-
aling the parrot in powers OF imitation.
Proc uring good specimen of the species,
fresh from the forest he set watch
upon his own tongue, avoiding all slang
and being very careful in respect OF
grammar Then, taking the bird on board
Q vessel about to sail for England ne
gave it to the ships cook, with a
promise that if the bird was de-
liyered into the hands of the
lady with its voca bulary undefiled bonus
of ten shillings would be forthcoming,
whereupon the cook promised to take all
possible care of the bird-to nourish him
and watch over his morals. On the voy-
age the nina exercised a marked inf1u-
ence for good over one part, at least, OF
the vessel, and the cooks cuddy was a
perfect hall of propriety, and in due
course he received his ten shillings
few weeks passed, and then the gentle
man in Ceylon received a letter from his
aunt. She thanked him for his gift, but
said she had been obliged to part with the
mina-not, however, on account of the ex-
pressions he made use Of, for his language
was correctness itself, but she could not
endure all day long plaintive cries OF
"Steward!" with marvellous, never-ceas'
ing limitations of the distressful sounds
issuing from the lips of passengers suffer

Antiquity of Lead Pipe.

Although tina production of lead pipe
has commonly been regarded Of quite
modern origin, there appears to be evl-
dence that the Romans were acquainted
with the articles, without, however, pos
sessing the appliances for fabricating any
thing of large dimensions or sufilclently
strong to Withstand pressure from the
